O devir educação como imaginação e experiência epistemológica no Agreste Pernambucano

A produção e difusão do conhecimento proporcionado pelo Agreste Pernambucano, por meio de seu curso de pós-graduação em Educação põe em xeque a importância de uma ciência qualitativa, democrática, participativa, pós-colonial, multicultural e diversa, que confronta com um ideário de ciência positivista, androcêntrica, patriarcal, sexista, LGBTfóbica, racista, classista, de cunho neoliberal, de razão indolente e totalitária.

A proposta deste estudo é trazer as contribuições dos escritos da educadora, feminista e anarquista do início do século XX, Maria Lacerda de Moura (1887-1945) sobre a condição feminina, fazendo aproximações possíveis dentro da discussão das categorias de gênero, patriarcado e educação e tomando como objeto de estudo seu segundo livro, Renovação, escrito em 1919.

Assim, como instrumento para o desenvolvimento de tal proposta, buscamos nos aprop...

Local Food Plants of Brazil

There has been growing academic interest in local food plants. This is a subject that lies at the frontiers of knowledge of various areas, such as environmental sciences, nutrition, public health, and humanities. To date, however, we do not have a book bringing these multi-disciplinary perspectives to bear on this complex field. This book presents the current state of knowledge on local Brazilian food plants through a multidisciplinary approach, including an overview of food plants in Brazil, as well as comprehensive nutritional data. It compiles basic theories on the interrelationship between biodiversity and food and nutrition security, as well as ethnobotanical knowledge of local Brazilian food plants. Additionally, this title provides various methods of learning and teaching the subject, including through social media, artificial intelligence, and through workshops, among others.

Epistemic Stance in English Conversation

Epistemic Stance in English Conversation

This book is the first corpus-based description of epistemic stance in conversational American English. It argues for epistemic stance as a pragmatic rather than semantic notion: showing commitment to the status of information is an emergent interactive activity, rooted in the interaction between conversational co-participants. The first major part of the book establishes the highly regular and routinized nature of such stance marking in the data. The second part offers a micro-analysis of I think, the prototypical stance marker, in its sequential and activity contexts. Adopting the methodology of conversation analysis and paying serious attention to the manifold prosodic cues attendant in the speakers' utterances, the study offers novel situated interpretations of I think. The author also argues for intonation units as a unit of social interaction and makes observations about the grammaticization patterns of the most frequent epistemic markers, notably the status of I think as a discourse marker.

Home Reading Service

In this poignant novel, a man guilty of a minor offense finds purpose unexpectedly by way of his punishment—reading to others. After an accident—or “the misfortune,” as his cancer-ridden father’s caretaker, Celeste, calls it—Eduardo is sentenced to a year of community service reading to the elderly and disabled. Stripped of his driver’s license and feeling impotent as he nears thirty-five, he leads a dull, lonely life, chatting occasionally with the waitresses of a local restaurant or walking the streets of Cuernavaca. Once a quiet town known for its lush gardens and swimming pools, the “City of Eternal Spring” is now plagued by robberies, kidnappings, and the other myriad ...

'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.

I Didn't Talk

The English-language debut of a master stylist: a compassionate but relentless novel about the long, dark harvest of Brazil’s totalitarian rule A professor prepares to retire—Gustavo is set to move from Sao Paulo to the countryside, but it isn’t the urban violence he’s fleeing: what he fears most is the violence of his memory. But as he sorts out his papers, the ghosts arrive in full force. He was arrested in 1970 with his brother-in-law Armando: both were vicariously tortured. He was eventually released; Armando was killed. No one is certain that he didn’t turn traitor: I didn’t talk, he tells himself, yet guilt is his lifelong harvest. I Didn’t Talk pits everyone against the ...

Terra fresca da sua tumba

O ruído da terra estrangeira, o fantástico e o macabro emaranhados no cotidiano, a crueldade de que só a família é capaz. Tramas de vingança e reconciliação circundam o abismo da morte e do trauma, em uma prosa intrépida e sensível, que extrai do dia a dia uma beleza brutal. Os seis contos longos que compõem a estreia em livro no Brasil da boliviana Giovanna Rivero são um chamado a outras vidas possíveis; expurgo e oração. "Tierra fresca de su tumba" foi publicado no idioma original na Argentina (Marciana, 2020); na Bolívia (El Cuervo, 2020); na Espanha (Candaya, 2021); e no Chile (Los libros de la mujer rota, 2022). Alguns contos foram traduzidos para o italiano e incluídos no livro "Ricomporre amorevoli scheletri" (Gran Via, Itália, 2020). A edição em português, "Terra fresca da sua tumba", é o primeiro livro da autora lançado no Brasil, em coedição das editoras Incompleta e Jandaíra. Apresentação de Carola Saavedra. Posfácio de Paloma Franca Amorim. Tradução de Laura Del Rey.
